Hey Folks. I'm wondering if someone can walk me through a few issues regarding booting systems using PXE? Having sorted out my Mandrake menu concerns it works but I still need to test it a few times), I'm now looking at how I can boot new PC's to start the installation process.

Any help would be appreciated.


You can also take a look at:
Etherboot - http://www.etherboot.org - It suports building a PXE boor image as well as ROM boot images.


The Linux Terminal Server Project - http://www.ltsp.org/ - There is a section on how to boot using PXE, and how to set up a server to do it.

I have not used the PXE information, but I have set up Etherboot, and LTS before. Etherboot used to be nice for network installs - you loaded the network install floppy image over the network, and away you went. All it required was to install the NIC with the boot ROM in the machine.
